A
NOTE TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS (ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT OF 2003 --OPPA)
It is the intent of the Privacy Policy to comply with the
California Act. Various provisions
throughout this Privacy Policy address requirements of the act. In summary, you must presume that we collect
electronic information from all visitors.
This is not usually personally identifiable. If you purchase a product or service via this
website (and thereby become covered by the Act), the purchase agreement you electronically
sign prior to purchase allows the website to collect and archive all the
personal information you provide and to transmit and/or transfer that personal
information to third parties. There is
no way you can modify this information and you have no right to do so. Under the terms of the purchase agreement,
you have no right to view or receive any information about our database. In the event that the website, under advice
of counsel agrees to divulge information, the requesting party must submit whatever
information is demanded by the website in order to insure that the website is
releasing information to the correct party.
Other provisions of the OPPA may exempt this website from complying. While we take measures to ensure that outside
parties do not have access to any information we have about you, we do not
warranty that outside parties will not breach our system and thus have access
to your information. (You should know
that merchant service providers do not allow us access to your credit card
information.) This Privacy Policy also
is subject to change without notice. You
are required to read it prior to using the website. By interacting with the website you agree to
the terms and conditions of the Privacy Policy.
By using the website or purchasing a product through this website, you
waive the right to use state or federal court systems to address complaints
and, instead, agree to use the American Arbitration Association located in a
city and county specified herein.
ABOUT THE PERSONAL INFORMATION THIS WEBSITE COLLECTS AND HOW IT IS

such as:

joining an affiliate program or other membership organization, paid or unpaid;
it may be from ordering a product.
Occasionally complete credit card information
may be provided to the website via fax or a fill-in form rather than regular
secure merchant service processing. This
information is kept at the highest level of security and is never divulged to
anyone except the merchant service provider or for the purpose of communication
with the customer.

"Cookies" is web jargon for bits of
computer code placed on your hard drive.

criteria, to monitor use, to password protect use of the site or use of
products sold by the site. Cookies can

use of your computer.

gathered from their use to benefit you.
You also give permission to collect, archive, retrieve, and use any
information collected for product design, product offers to you, and general
commercial solicitation purposes by this site or joint venture partners,
affiliates, and marketing organizations.
The use of information as described below may or
may not be how information that is collected is customarily used by this
site. While actual use of any
information collected may be used quite conservatively, you must assume that it
is not. You must assume that information
collected is shared with other persons or entities for commercial
purposes. While this is uncommon in
practice, you must assume that it is as you make your decision whether or not
to view or interact with this website.
This type of shared information may include your name, address, phone
number, email address and buying habits, as well as other information. This information may be used for general
commercial solicitation by this website or other persons it is sold to, rented
to, or shared with.

forms the basis of communication with you, such as an email address, you waive
all rights to file complaints concerning unsolicited email or spam from this

shall contain an 'unsubscribe' link where you may notify the website that you
